Pads get screwed!!! Couldn't have ended any better!
The Rockies got ****ed over with Atkins' homerun anyway, so what should Padre fans bitch about? They lost. They ****ing blew a 2-run lead.
Suicide watch? More like MURDER watch! Seriously tho, I love replay in hockey and football. I know this was one of those plays that probably would have been left up to the ump's discretion. But it is what is (they are who we thought they were!)- a bad call. He wasn't safe. But the ump called him safe. I still would have tagged him if I was the catcher and then protested.Quote:

Barrett tagged him, he saw the ump make the call and he still touched him. So technically he still tagged him.Quote:

Was the umpire Doug Eddings by any crazy chance?
Nope, Tim McClelland.Quote:

In the case of baseball and this particular decision, he needs to know if the runner touched home plate. If he did, the he is safe and CO wins. If not, then the runner goes back to third and we replay the at-bat.Quote:

Even on replay that call was tough. The yellow line in Coors is in play. And it didn't look like that ball hit the seats or anything.Quote:

Atkins spot came up what like 3 more times that game, and he made out I think twice? Not to mention it was a no brainer to pitch around Todd Helton. If Atkins is in the game might be over earlier, not to mention Carroll who was brought in for defense made an error.
Just thought I'd point that out.
